About: Dog Walker & Boarding – Loving, Safe, and Active Care Hi! My name is Agata and I live in the West Miami area. I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud owner of a Siberian Husky, so I understand the importance of giving dogs plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I grew up in a family where dogs, cats, and even horses were part of everyday life, which made me very comfortable handling animals of all sizes and personalities. Spending time with animals has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. I love staying active and enjoy long walks, outdoor adventures, and bike runs with my dog. I’m experienced walking multiple dogs at once and always prioritize safety, positive interactions, and making sure every dog gets the attention they deserve. I am also comfortable administering medications when needed and following any specific care instructions to ensure your pet stays healthy and happy. My family and I truly enjoy welcoming dog guests into our home. Every dog we host becomes part of our routine, receiving plenty of love, playtime, and attention in a calm and caring environment. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, companionship during the day, or a safe place to stay while you’re away, I would be delighted to care for them and share joyful moments together. I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful dog! 🐾 When your dog stays with me, they become part of my daily routine and receive plenty of attention, activity, and care. The day usually starts with a morning walk, followed by playtime in the backyard so dogs can stretch, explore, and burn off some energy. During the day, they enjoy additional outdoor playtime in the afternoon, along with plenty of supervision, affection, and rest indoors. In the evening I take them for another relaxing walk, helping dogs settle comfortably for the night. Feeding is always done according to the owner’s instructions, including specific schedules, portions, or dietary needs. I’m also comfortable administering medication when required. I also make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while staying with us. My goal is for your dog to enjoy their stay like a little vacation while you have peace of mind knowing they are in caring and attentive hands. Safety, Trust & Comfortable Environment Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home features a secure fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor playtime and fresh air. For the well-being of all pets, I also have the ability to separate small and large dogs both in the yard and inside the home when needed, ensuring every dog feels comfortable and relaxed. Dogs sleep in a clean, quiet, air-conditioned room specially designated for my dog guests, creating a calm and comfortable place for them to rest. I also have experience caring for dogs who are sensitive to storms or loud noises, and I provide a calm environment with extra reassurance during stressful moments. My goal is to create a safe, peaceful, and trustworthy space where every dog feels secure and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog like a special guest in my home, providing attentive care, a calm environment, and plenty of love during their stay.
“Andria is the most responsible, caring, and considerate cat sitter I have ever used!! She is so good with my cats and has even won over my difficult kitty who is usually afraid of cat sitters. Not only does she make sure my cats are taken care of, she also looks after my apartment and cleans up all the messes my cats make while I’m gone- which is above and beyond and makes coming home much nicer! Thank you Andria for taking such good care of my kitties :-)”


About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience with a wide range of animals-from tiny hamsters to senior rescue dogs. I've volunteered at shelters, cared for all kinds of pets since I was five, and currently dote on my 16-year-old mixed-breed pup. I understand how hard it is to trust someone with your furry family, so I make it my mission to treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. Big or small, shy or spunky-every pet is family to me. I’m currently available for weekend bookings only and offer care in your home to keep your pet comfortable in their own space. I’m unable to host pets at my place due to my senior dogs needs, but I’m more than happy to come to you and provide loving, dependable care whenever your pet feels more at ease. Your pets safety and your homes privacy are my top priorities. I respect every space I enter and care for your pet with the same caution I give my own. I understand how personal it is to welcome someone into your home, I take that responsibility very seriously, always reliable, transparent, and treat pets and people with kindness.
“This is the second time Alejandra take care of my 3 cats and I am very happy with her service. She is very responsible and attentive with the cats. Communication with her is also fast and clear. I will definitely hire her again for this service when needed. Thank you Alejandra!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Valerie as my cat sitter! She took care of my two cats for four days while I was away, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. Valerie came to my house every day to feed them, and she ensured they were well cared for and comfortable in their own space. I returned to two happy, relaxed cats and everything in perfect order. She was reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend Valerie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive cat sitter!”

“Drew was amazing with Duke. Super patient and attentive. He was a life saver coming in to drop-in on Duke. He fed him, walked him, played with him. Would have him care for Duke again!”

About: I can take care of dogs of all sizes and breeds and know strategies to ease anxiety and behavioral tactics to deal with all types of dogs. I am researched and experienced with foods and treats that are beneficial or dangerous to your dog. I am extremely loving and obsessed with dogs. I am detail oriented, thorough and organized. I work a part time as a teacher on Fridays and Saturdays. I attend the University of Miami. If scheduled ahead of time a can plan an overnight stay in your home to look over your fur babies! Excited to work with you and your dogs! Dog Walking- I know signs of overheating according to dog body language and how to help them if they do overheat. I know how to approach a situation in which other dogs attacks or approaches client’s dog. Dog sitting/play date or potty break- I give all attention to dog and enjoy time with them, observing body language or physical sign of ailment, sickness, or harm.

About: I’ve had dogs in my family since before I was born. I love puppies and senior dogs. I’m an animal enthusiast in general and walking dogs is a dream job! I’m currently working part time(15hrs), so I have plenty of time to walk and care for our furry friends. Typically available 4-7 days of the week. I make sure to walk, feed, play, and let the pet outside accordingly. I typically set alarms or reminders on my phone with a schedule I adhere to.( client given or make one)
About: New Clients: All dogs regardless of sex must submit valid rabies certificate/documentation before they will be approved (Miami Dade county law requires all dogs over 4 months to have rabies vaccine), any dog regardless of sex that is not fully UTD (including bordetella) will be automatically declined. All male dogs must also submit documentation proving they are neutered for approval. Unneutered Male dogs will be automatically declined. No Exceptions!!!!! I've had dogs most of my life since I was 8 years old (currently on dogs #3 and #4). I'm a natural with dogs (some say I'm a dog whisperer) and love them so much (I love giving belly rubs). I own two Siberian Husky that are well cared for so they are my references. Services offered: My house: Boarding, Walking, Grooming (Bath, Blow, Dry, and Nail Clipping only, No Haircuts/Shaving or Teeth Cleaning). Takes me about an hour to groom and dry each of my dogs using professional grooming equipment (Grooming is extra). Note: Boarding, Day Care, Walking, Dog Park and Grooming are all seperate services, so each has their own separate charge. If you want Walking, Dog Park, or Grooming Services it must be paid for on top of the Boarding/Day Care rate or service will not be performed. Drop Off / Pickup rate is for the first 10 miles from my house. Each additional mile is an additional $2.00 per mile (rounded up). there's 4 trips involved to pickup and dropoff as it is 2 round trips. For example if your address is 10 miles from me that means I have to drive 40 miles in total to pickup and dropoff your pooch so your total pickup/drop off rate would be $85 ($25 for the first 10 miles + $60 for the remaining 30 miles). Total Distance is determined by the fastest route during rush hour traffic on the day of booking request. Owner is responsible for all tolls for pickup/dropoff aswell which will be added at the time of booking. Your house: Drop In Visits, Walking My property is 6,240 sq.ft so plenty of space for your dog(s) to run around and play. The backyard is Siberian Husky escape proof with concrete all the way around the backyard fence so your dog(s) can't dig or find a way out (unless your dog can jump a 6ft high fence). if your dog is an outdoor dog you can leave him/her in my backyard without any worries of escaping as there are two locked gates in the backyard and I'm the only person who has the key. I specialize in Siberian Husky, if you own Siberian Husky this is the place for your husky with someone who is capable of handling such a special breed. I work full time but my job is very flexible, allows me to work whenever I want and lots of traveling around the city which allows for a quick 15 minute potty break/feeding and go back to work mid-day if I'm near home. Safety is my #1 priority (this is why I require all dogs to submit their valid rabies, UTD, and neutered documentation. When your dog first arrives on the property the first thing I do is introduce your dog to all the dogs on the property to see how your dog responds to each dog. If your dog(s) has problems getting along with other dogs it is my job to find a suitable group for your dog to spend their stay with. In the event your dog cannot find a suitable group then your dog will not interact with the other dogs or groups and will be placed in their own group for the remainder of their stay. During mealtime your dog will be temporarily isolated from the other dogs (in a crate or in a room by themself) until they finish (this is to prevent fights with other dogs over resource guarding and to insure your dog only eats the food they are use to). Once your dog has finished only then will your dog be allowed to return to the group. When I am away from home all dogs are isolated from each other (unless they came from the same household) until I return.
“Jennifer did a great job taking care of my cat for an extended weekend. She was responsible, communicated well with informative daily updates, and I came home to a happy cat. Would book again.”


About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, growing up with a sweet Labrador who was my best friend for years. This taught me how to care for pets at every stage of their lives with patience and heart. While I haven't owned a cat myself, I’m the go-to sitter for my cat-owner friends! I’ve done plenty of drop-in visits for them while they were traveling, so I’m very comfortable with feeding, litter box duties, and—most importantly—respecting a cat’s unique personality and space. I’m also experienced with pets that need extra TLC. I’ve helped a friend care for their high-maintenance dog, so I’m comfortable administering medication and providing calm companionship for pets that get a bit anxious. Whether your fur baby is a playful pup or a shy kitty, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and pampered! 🐾✨ Every drop-in visit starts with a warm greeting to make your pet feel comfortable and loved. I’ll ensure they have a fresh bowl of water and their meal served exactly as you’ve instructed. For dogs, this includes a quick potty break or some fun yard time, while for kitties, I’ll make sure the litter box is sparkling clean. Most importantly, I dedicate plenty of time to play, belly rubs, or quiet companionship, ending each visit with a cute "pupdate" and photo so you can see your happy best friend! 😊 Your pet’s safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Having cared for pets with high-maintenance needs and medication routines, I am extremely detail-oriented and will follow your home’s security and care instructions to the letter. I treat every home with total respect, ensuring everything is tidy and all doors are securely locked before I leave. You can trust that your furry family member is in reliable, loving hands and that their environment will stay safe and stress-free while you’re away. ✨
About: Always walking and never ever going to let your pet feel like they will give up. Above and beyond worker. Willing to always help. Focused I am available in the early mornings most days. Also, I am available some weekends depending on the weekend. I need to be notified before scheduling appointments. When I first meet a pet. I always make sure to let the pet get comfortable with me. I slowly get used to the pet.

“Sofía was amazing and treated my babies like her own. I recommend her as a cat sitter. She played with them and left a useful comment about the water filter, which I really appreciated”

“Melanie was very patient with our cat and spent time to get her to warm up to her. Very responsive and pro-active on pet care, I would highly recommend Melanie to anyone to care for their pets.”

The median cost per visit for dog sitting in West Miami is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Miami
Nadia was great and was able to schedule a last minute emergency. My dog is fearful and reactive which has been a huge limitation on my day to day, and I’m so thankful she was able to stop by to watch and feed her. Highly recommended to anyone out there (especially those with more normal dogs)

Andrea was great with our little Bogey! Always checked in and gave me updates and even started helping keep up with his training (sit, paw, down, and ringing the bells to go potty outside). I appreciated Andrea’s help and will definitely use her again! Highly recommend and will definitely use again soon

Courtney has been the best to work with. She is extremely helpful and is always helping us out with Bear. I also love how attentive she is with my dog. I am always receiving many updates and messages from her! Bear is always so happy after visiting with Courtney, and is always excited to see her. Highly recommend her watching anyone’s animal!

Gabriela was everything I look for in a sitter and more! My dog can take some time to warm up to people but Gaby made it so easy for her to be comfortable! I appreciated the thorough visit summaries and photos that were sent, it put me at ease so I had no worried while being away!

Kristel was absolutely wonderful with my dog Pepper! Pepper can be quite stubborn and is usually hesitant around new people, but Kristel’s patience and genuine care completely won her over. From the very beginning, Kristel showered Pepper with love and attention, taking time to let her warm up and always making sure she felt comfortable. I received regular updates and adorable photos, and it was clear that Pepper was relaxed, happy, and truly in the best hands. When I returned home, Pepper was her usual cheerful self, maybe even a bit better behaved! I’m so grateful for Kristel’s dedication and kindness. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for your pup as much as you do! Thank you, Kristel, for taking such amazing care of Pepper!

Sophia is the sweetest and most caring sitter I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! This is my second time of many and I couldn’t be happier! My three babies love her so much and are always happy to see her! She is very communicative and sends the cutest pictures! 100% recommend to everyone! My fur babies have never been happier with anyone!!

Mariah has been absolutely wonderful! I’ve used her three times now, and each time she has done an excellent job caring for both my dog and cat. I fully trust her with my pets and know they’re in good hands whenever she’s with them. She’s reliable, caring, and consistent! I’ll continue to trust her time and time again. Highly recommend!

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
